Overview Testicular torsion is a urological emergency caused by twisting of the spermatic cord, leading to acute interruption of blood flow to the testis and rapid ischemia. It most commonly occurs in adolescents (peak 12–18 years) but can occur at any age, including neonates. The incidence is approximately 1 in 4,000 males under 25 years. Early […]

Overview Snapping Hip Syndrome (SHS) is characterized by an audible or palpable “snap” around the hip during motion; it may be painless or painful and can be unilateral or bilateral. Prevalence estimates suggest up to ~5–10% of the general population may experience snapping to some degree, with higher rates in dancers and athletes who work […]

Overview Prostatitis refers to a spectrum of conditions involving inflammation of the prostate gland, ranging from acute bacterial infection to chronic pelvic pain syndromes. It is a common urological condition affecting men of all ages, particularly those aged 30–50 years. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) classifies prostatitis into four categories: acute bacterial, chronic bacterial, chronic […]

Overview VEXAS syndrome is a late-onset, adult autoinflammatory disease caused by acquired somatic mutations in the UBA1 gene, leading to dysregulated innate immunity, systemic inflammation, and overlapping haematologic and rheumatologic manifestations.  VEXAS stands for Vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, Autoinflammatory, Somatic. It predominantly affects older males due to its X-linked nature and typically presents with refractory […]

Overview Osteonecrosis of the hip, usually referring to osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), is a progressive disorder caused by compromised subchondral blood supply leading to death of osteocytes and marrow elements, failed structural repair, subchondral fracture, femoral head collapse, and eventually secondary hip osteoarthritis.[1-4]  It most often affects younger to middle-aged adults, commonly between […]

Overview Amyloidosis is a disorder in which misfolded proteins aggregate into insoluble beta-pleated sheet fibrils and deposit extracellularly in tissues, leading to progressive organ dysfunction. It may be systemic or localized.  In current practice, the most clinically important systemic forms are AL (light-chain), AA (serum amyloid A), and ATTR (transthyretin; hereditary or wild-type). The phenotype […]

Overview Behçet’s syndrome is a chronic, relapsing, multisystem inflammatory disorder and variable-vessel vasculitis characterized classically by recurrent oral ulcers, genital ulcers, ocular inflammation, and skin lesions. It can also involve the joints, vessels, nervous system, and gastrointestinal tract.  The disease is most prevalent along the historic “Silk Road” region, including Turkey, the Middle East, and […]

Overview Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) is a mast-cell–driven skin disorder defined by recurrent wheals (hives), angioedema, or both for >6 weeks without a specific external trigger, with a point prevalence around 0.5–1% and a female predominance; median disease duration is ~2–5 years, but a subset persists longer and markedly impairs quality of life and work […]

Overview Anaphylaxis is a severe, systemic hypersensitivity reaction that is rapid in onset and potentially fatal, most often triggered by foods, medications, or venom; global incidence is ~50–112 per 100,000 person-years with rising emergency presentations in many regions, including Australia [1,2,4].  Mortality is low but non-trivial and is driven by airway obstruction, severe bronchospasm, or […]

Overview Adult Onset Still’s Disease (AOSD) is a complex multisystemic autoinflammatory disease characterised by recurrent episodes of spiking fever (> 39–40°C), pink–salmon transient skin rash, and the presence of arthralgia or polyarthritis. First described by Eric Bywaters in 1971 it closely resembles systemic onset juvenile idiopathic arthritis (Still’s disease). Pathophysiology AOSD is a polygenic and […]

Transient osteoporosis of the hip causes sudden, severe groin or buttock pain and reversible bone marrow edema—learn how to spot, diagnose, and manage it. In this clear, clinically focused video you’ll discover the defining features of transient osteoporosis of the hip, why it’s distinct from general osteoporosis and avascular necrosis, and how MRI identifies diffuse […]

Discover how viral structure dictates infection, immunity, and transmission — learn viral structure, genomes, capsids, envelopes, and replication basics. This concise explainer breaks down virus biology using clear analogies and key technical terms like capsid, nucleocapsid, positive-sense and negative-sense RNA, segmented genomes, reverse transcriptase, and viral glycoproteins. You’ll understand how genomes (DNA or RNA, single- […]

Can you make a video on this topic?

Quizzes with each note section. – Quiz bank that users can select based on category, difficulty and duration/amount – Users eventually can create there own quizzes for groups, people can follow and participate – Users can flag incorrect quiz answer and explanation

When creating a profile. Users should be asked what interests they have. Feed should be tailored to this. Perhaps even side bar suggestion on groups, events to participate in.

It would be great to have an option to link videos/articles to the relevant Amboss/uptodate articles or to anki so we can make flashcards/questions on that topic.

I think it would very useful to have a features where a user can upload powerpoints presentation to share on a particular topic. There should then be a library dedicated for this. They should be organised

Post polls to collect quantitative feedback from community

Create and manage groups like facebook so you can have a group of members focusing on a specific topic or project etc
